Key Trouble
What's the book about?
Gran comes to visit with some old black-and-white photos, and a glowing magic key suddenly whisks Kipper into a world where everything is grey, just like an old picture. At first Kipper is cross and doesn’t treat the key kindly, but his gloomy adventure teaches him that upsetting the magic key can lead to real trouble. When he finally says sorry, Kipper is very glad to find his colours – and his cheerful life at home – coming back again.

This book is about
Gran comes to stay. She brings the children presents. Kipper went on an adventure where everything was grey like an old photograph. When he came back he was grey. The children and Gran made sure Mum and Dad didn't find out. Mum called the doctor because she thought Kipper was ill. The key glowed because Kipper said sorry. He got his colour back. Kipper didn't go to the doctor and Mum and Dad didn't find out about the key.
The main characters are
Biff, Chip, Kipper, Gran, Mum and Dad.
My favourite part of the book is
